Scarlett - Bangkok 101 Art Culture Food News

Wine Bars
Scarlett Terrace - Bangkok101

Published on October 1st, 2012 | by admin

Scarlett?s Wine Bar and Restaurant is on the 37th floor of the Pullman Hotel G, formerly the Sofitel on Silom Road. The hotel has been thoroughly renovated and reopened its doors in May of this year and is billed as a ?lifestyle hotel.?

Pullman is another hotel brand of the French Accor hotel group and true to its French heritage it features not only more than 150 wines from which to choose at Scarlett?s but also a food menu that most wines bars around Bangkok would find difficult to match.

The design of Scarlett?s is outstanding with an outside terrace for sunset viewing surrounding the interior wine bar and dining room, together totaling 400 square meters.

The ?standard? Scarlett?s menu was developed by Manuel Martinez who is the owner of the historic Le Relais Louis XIII in Paris where he has been awarded two Michelin stars since 2001. Martinez makes two or three trips a year to Bangkok to check out Scarlett?s menu and make revisions.

The goal of the wine bar restaurant is to encourage dining out without the stuffy accoutrements of formal French dining. The menu consists of four starters and four main courses with prices for the starters ranging from 340 to 690 and the main courses 850 to 990 baht.

Of particular note among the starters were the homemade smoked salmon filet with potato salad and an egg poached in pinot noir (it?s poached for one hour, how do they do it?). From the main course menu: grilled scallops with truffle dressing and roasted lamb shoulder, confit shoulder and ratatouille.

As one enters Scarlett?s on each side there are racks that display very expensive wine on the way to the main room, indicating this is a serious wine bar undertaking featuring both Old and New World wines.

Wine prices are reasonable starting at B150 and on the day we visited one of Chateuneuf du Pape?s outstanding estates, Domaine du Pegau, was on offer for B400. Few bottles of Pegau reach Bangkok and it is certainly an opportunity to taste this fine wine.
